132. Vehicle Inheritance Public

Your task is to define two classes:

• Base class: Vehicle

  • A method void printCategory() that prints:
    Generic Vehicle

     

• Derived class: Car (inherits publicly from Vehicle)
  • A method void printCar() that prints:
    Car Vehicle

The program will:

1. Create a Car object.
2. Call printCategory() (inherited from base).
3. Call printCar() (defined in derived).
   
    

Example

Output:

Generic Vehicle
Car Vehicle

Why this output?

• The base class method printCategory() is accessible through the derived class because of public inheritance.
• The derived class adds its own method printCar() and prints its message.
   

Question Significance

This reinforces the idea of reusing base functionality and extending it in derived classes.
